45 | + | <b>Wednesday 22 October 2003</b><br><br> |
46 | + | Version 0.7 of libstatgrab has been released.<br> |
47 | + | Download it |
48 | + | <a href="http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.i-scream.org/pub/i-scream/libstatgrab/libstatgrab-0.7.tar.gz">here</a>. |
49 | + | The most significant change in this release is support for NetBSD |
50 | + | 1.6.x. Parts of the FreeBSD code have been optimised, and an initialise |
51 | + | function has been added to allow programs to drop any extra privileges |
52 | + | libstatgrab needs. The list of known file systems has been increased, |
53 | + | and libstatgrab has been tested on even more platforms. Finally, |
54 | + | saidar has been tweaked to work even if it can't get all the |
55 | + | statistics. |

64 | + | bugfixes in FreeBSD memory statistics. Also, some fixes to saidar, |

114 | < | provides a curses-based interface to viewing the current state of the |
115 | < | system. The second, statgrab, gives a sysctl-style interface to the |
116 | < | statistics gathered by libstatgrab. This extends the use of |
117 | < | libstatgrab to people writing scripts or anything else that can't |
118 | < | easily make C function calls. Included with statgrab is a script to |
